What is the best Equalizer setting in Winamp, to optimise the listening experience of Trance.
Do you use the preset 'Techno' ? Whats your Equalizer setting?

Personally i dont like using equalizers because you can hear clipping quite a lot of the time, especially with extreme settings (like high bass)

it dependes on your sound system... if you got decent one you can make bass a bit louder, but as somebody said not too much, just experiment to get best for you and your speakers

i have pricey speakers...preset eqs ftl. i keep eq and gain flat and off most the time, otherwise it's a very subtle coloration to offset a bad recording

There is no end-all EQ setting for all stereos.
That's like saying "what's the best car?". Depends on the situation.

+1... if you have decent enough speakers/phones then you shouldn't need to touch the EQ

the speaker can only ever sound as good as the signal that went into it.

I might be wrong here but i was actually refering to clipping in the output signal rather than distortion through the speakers. Does anyone know if i'm right?

playing with the eqs wont clip ur speakers unless u really jack them up. I raise the lows and highs a bit, and lower the mids. But thats what works best for my speakers... depends on ur system, if u have a sub etc. Just play around and see what sounds best to you. But dont raise them all, if u raise a few, you should lower some as well so its balanced out.
